Re: tjs 72 Blazer Build

So the interior was painted on Friday evening as we thought it would. The body shop owner sent me this picture after they removed it from the booth on Sunday night. Bright eh !!!

It was in the booth again this afternoon when I stopped by just getting the top of the dash painted black so I couldn't get anymore pictures.

Now that they are painting colour it is moving along reasonably well. Fingers crossed they will paint the exterior this Friday.

They said they want to paint the tub, hood, tailgate, fenders, doors, basically all exterior pieces at the same time. He says they will do the Tub in one booth and all the other loose exterior pieces in their second booth. His reasoning is that while the paint mix is the same regardless, however, painting all the exterior panels at the same time ensures the enviromental conditions are identical which can contribute to how the paint looks.
I don't know much about painting but with the little I do, he seems to very diligent in everything they have done so far.
